Interesteg What makes it different from others?

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Martin Bradley This convoluted so-called 'thriller' is so hard to follow you get the impression they made it up as they went along. It is, however, given something of a lift by the performances of its two Oscar-winning 'guest' stars though, apart from money, what drew either Al Pacino or Anthony Hopkins to this is a mystery. Given the material they have to work with, they are both excellent but the movie is such rubbish you probably won't want to spend too much time with them and certainly no time with anyone else. Dire.

pkpera This year I had misfortune to watch some really bad movies. Recent one is Geostorm - but I did not expect much from that. Here, you see 2 famous veterans among actors, some called them 2 greatest and like. And this movie is just one big mess, misfire in all levels, aspects. Everything is bad - direction, story, storytelling, editing, and yes, acting in most cases. Should we blame Al Pacino, Anthony Hopkins for bad acting, or rather director and poor script ? Actually, who invested money in this disaster of movie ? As I see, they wanted to make some noir, with twists, something what will keep viewers on edge. Huh, I almost felt asleep at about 1h. There were many scenes witch simply did not make sense, were overdone, too long - like some of motorcycle attacks. Maybe worst was scene where Pacino and Hopkins were together (only one in this mismovie) - maybe it had some sense, but was presented so poorly, and no logic at all. For the end need to mention Alice Eve - did she was on something during filming ? How she passed casting for this movie - was criteria to look doped in all scenes ? Sorry to say such things, but it was some worst acting I ever seen. Rating: 2 - just because some pictures on exhibition were good :-)

jackthehack I like refrigerator movies. Hitchcock called the serviceable thrillers that because while they were very entertaining to watch, after you go home and are going through the refrigerator, you start to pick apart the plot. In case of Misconduct, you might as well carry a portable refrigerator because you start picking the plot apart while watching it!Some good direction and clever plotting can help cover a deeply flawed movie to an extent. This movie however is extremely tone deaf. There is no sense of directorial style. There is an insulting use of non- linear chronology which serves no purpose other than to hide the fact that the plot is paper thin. It goes without saying that Al Pacino and Sir Anthony Hopkins are legends. They can make Troll 3 at this point and their legacy won't be hurt. Well maybe a little bit, but they are still legends. But this movie wastes their talents especially Hopkins who seems like he is waiting to cash in his check. Pacino gets a scene to go bombastic but you just don't care and just feel sad for the guy. Josh Duhamel tries but the ridiculous script defeats him. The standout is Alice Eve who gives the worst performance I have ever seen in a big budget movie. There is emotionally distant and there is whatever the hell Eve was going for. I was in a flight and looking for a quick movie to kill the time but this movie despite a promising start, completely goes off the rails and ends up being a waste. There is a scene about 70% into the movie where Hopkins and Pacino are on-screen, for the first time EVER...and you just don't give a damn! That is all you need to know about this junk.

caf-19 Causing my fellow viewer and I to have misapprehension about the capability of 'New' Hollywood to ever produce a real, captivating, exciting, follow-able suspense/murder mystery again since Michael Douglas was being stalked by bunny-boiling broads.(1987, Fatal Attraction)I won't bore anyone with a verbose explanation of the many ways this movie didn't make the mark, or even throw in a lecture about the regrettable waste of good actors such as Anthony Hopkins or Al Pacino. I will keep this short by summing up the comment of my blue-collar fellow Misconduct watcher as soon as the movie ended: "I didn't get it, did you get it? I didn't get any part of that movie...None of it made sense! Ya know what? Those kids in Hollywood doing the writing and directing and producing these days?....they're too stupid to know how to do a good movie" And there is the sad truth.Hollywood: The gauntlet has been thrown down. Do ANY of you have the talent, guts, or skill to do something about it?
